Definitions
- the present invention relates in general to a method and apparatus for simultaneous spatial and temporal focusing of femtosecond pulses to improve the axial confinement and thus signal-to-background ratio (SBR) in multiphoton imaging techniques, such as microspcopy, endoscopy, spectroscopy, fluorescence microscopy, second harmonic microscopy, etc.
- SBR signal-to-background ratio
- This is achieved by spatially separating spectral components of pulses and recombining these components only at the spatial focus of an imaging system.
- the temporal pulse width becomes a function of distance, with the shortest pulse width confined to the spatial focus.
- MPM Laser scanning multiphoton microscopy
- the present invention fulfills the foregoing need through provision of a technique for simultaneous spatial and temporal focusing of femtosecond pulses in multiphoton imaging.
- This concept is realized by spatially separating spectral components of optical radiation pulses into a "rainbow beam" comprised of a plurality of spaced, preferably parallel beams of different wavelengths and recombining these components only at the spatial focus of an imaging system.
- the temporal pulse width becomes a function of distance, with the shortest pulse width being confined to the spatial focus. This will improve the SBR by reducing the background excitation while maintaining the signal strength. This is because the efficiency of multiphoton excitation, which is a nonlinear process, depends strongly on the excitation pulse width (r) .
- the excitation efficiency varies as ⁇ " 1 for two-photon excited fluorescence.
- an extra degree of confinement for the excitation can be achieved if one can create a temporal focus where the pulse width varies along the propagation direction and the shortest pulse is only achieved at the focal point.
- a chirp-free input rainbow beam is generated by first divergently separating the different spectral components from a mode-locked Ti:Sapphire laser using a reflective grating and then recollimating them using a cylindrical lens.
- the geometric dispersion caused by the grating is automatically canceled after the process of recollimation and therefore the rainbow spectrum after the cylindrical lens is chirp-free.
- the simultaneous temporal and spatial focusing effect is then realized by passing the rainbow beam through an objective lens, which focuses the beams both temporally and spatially at a focal point.
- the second condition if a chirp-free spectrum of the rainbow beam can be produced at the back aperture of the objective lens, then from the optical path argument, the required chirp-free condition can be re-achieved after the objective but only at the focal point. Since the realization of the above two conditions is restricted at the focal volume, it then follows that the temporal focusing effect will occur only at the vicinity of the focal point.
- the present invention can also be employed to provide remote axial scanning of the maximum signal excitation plane for wide-field nonlinear microscopy, which is a practical concern in the design of a nonlinear microscopy system.
- the simultaneous spatial and temporal focusing technique of the present invention when operated in the wide-field mode, provides a way to perform the axial scanning of the maximum signal excitation plane in the axial direction. Wide-field operation removes the spatial focusing and therefore inside the focal volume illumination field is only temporally focused. This temporal focusing is achieved because different colors are spatially separated, i.e. the effect of geometrical dispersion.
- the axial position of the maximum signal excitation plane shifts to the position where the input spectrum chirp is canceled by the geometrical dispersion, i.e. the position where the pulse temporal width is shortest.
- Another application of the present invention is for automatic dispersion compensation in wide-field nonlinear microscopy based on a single-core fiber. Since short pulses are required at the sample end, due to the existence of relatively large fiber dispersion, regular methods typically require pre-dispersion compensation to prevent pulse broadening.
- the fiber-delivery of ultrashort pulses is immune to the fiber chromatic dispersion.
- the simultaneous spatial and temporal focusing technique intrinsically inherits the geometrical dispersion into the system as a result of wavelength spatial separation.
- the dispersion accumulated through the propagation inside the fiber will be automatically compensated by shifting the temporal focal plane away from the geometrical optics one.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic illustration showing the concept of simultaneous temporal and spatial focusing of femtosecond pulses in accordance with the concept of the present invention
- FIG. 2 is a schematic illustration of an multiphoton imaging system that can be employed to implement the concept of the present invention (in the line-scanning mode) in accordance with a preferred embodiment thereof;
- FIG. 3 are graphs showing auto-correlation traces of the measured pulse at different sample positions for an experiment conducted using the system of FIG. 2, with FIG. 3(a) showing the trace at the focal plane of the objective and FIG. 3 (b) showing the trace at a point 275 ⁇ m away from focal plane.
- the inset inside trace (a) shows the interference fringes at the vicinity of zero time delay;
- FIG. 4 is a graph illustrating the measured (solid square) and theoretically calculated (line) pulse width as a function of sample position for the experiments conducted with the system of FIG. 2, where the location of the focal plane of the objective lens is set to be zero;
- ⁇ is the excitation wavelength
- n is the refractive index of the medium
- NA is the numerical aperture of the objective lens.
- an extra degree of confinement for the excitation can be achieved if a temporal focus can be created where the pulse width varies along the propagation direction and the shortest pulse is only achieved at the focal point.
- Such a technique will improve the SBR by reducing the background excitation while maintaining the signal strength.
- FIG. 1 The basic principle for the simultaneous temporal and spatial focusing is illustrated in FIG. 1.
- Spatial focusing is still achieved by passing the light through an objective lens. However, instead of keeping all the spectral components well overlapped in space during the focusing process, they are first separated spatially and are then recombined only at the focal point. More particularly, the system input is a rainbow-like superposition of many parallel optical beams of which the center positions are linearly displaced according to their wavelengths. The spectrum of the input is assumed to be chirp-free. After passing through a regular objective lens, the rainbow beam is then focused and recombined in space. Temporal focusing is achieved because of the reduced spatial overlapping and the non-zero geometric dispersion outside the focal volume.
- the steps of the calculation are as follows: first assume that the input beam profile at the back aperture of the objective can be written as a superposition of many monochromatic, spatially transform-limited Gaussian beams, of which the center positions are linearly displaced according to their wavelengths. It is further assumed that the optical spectrum of the input waveform at the back aperture of the objective is chirp-free and has a Gaussian spectral profile. Then, for each monochromatic Gaussian beam, calculate the evolution of the spatial beam profile analytically using the standard paraxial propagation method. Finally, evaluate the performance of the simultaneous temporal and spatial focusing by summing up all the monochromatic contributions. It should be noted that from FIG. 1, since the spatial coupling only happens between x and z directions, the dependence of the beam profile on the variable y is therefore dropped in the analysis.
- the input beam amplitude A 1 (Xj) is first written at the back aperture of the objective lens as a superposition of many spatial Gaussian beams, of which the center positions are linearly displaced according to their wavelengths,
- V2 In 2 • s is the FWHM diameter of each monochromatic beam, a is a proportionality constant and a ⁇ A ⁇ is the linear displacement of the beam center at the offset frequency of A ⁇ . Because it is assumed that the input beam profile is a superposition of many spatially transform-limited and temporally chirp-free beams, both ⁇ and s are then treated as real numbers in these calculations.
- n , _ -V ⁇ « ⁇ +, /,. ⁇ ⁇ -(z-/) (4-2)
- the pulse width will be the shortest at the focal point.
- the FWHM pulse width of 2V21n2 / ⁇ at the focal point is the transform-limited value for a Gaussian spectrum with a FWHM bandwidth V21n2 • ⁇ , indicating that the pulses at the focal point are once again chirp-free.
- m becomes a large complex number.
- the temporal pulse width increases quickly and the pulses are highly chirped. Therefore, true simultaneous spatial and temporal focusing is obtained.
- the system 100 includes a scanning mirror 101 for receiving a pulsed optical radiation beams from a laser 102 or other suitable pulsed optical source and directing the beam through first cylindrical lens 104 to a grating 106.
- the grating 106 separates the incident beam into a rainbow beam 108 including a plurality of separate beams, each of a different color or wavelength.
- the rainbow beam is then passed through another cylindrical lens 110, which collimates the beams thereby making them parallel and evenly spaced.
- the spaced beams are then incident on an objective lens 112, which then focuses the beams at a focal point as illustrated in FIG. 1.
- a dichromatic mirror 114 receives the detected fluorescence from a sample (not shown) at the focal point and directs it through a low NA lens 116 to a CCD array 118 or other suitable detector.
- FIG. 4 shows the measured temporal pulse width (solid squares) at various distances away from the focal plane by translating the thin Rhodamine B sample.
- PWSF pulse width stretching factor
- the present invention can also be employed to provide remote axial scanning of the maximum signal excitation plane for wide-field nonlinear microscopy.
- One practical concern in the design of nonlinear microscopy system is the ability to perform remote scanning.
- Other than traditional remote scanning technique, which are typically realized by adjusting the spatial wave-front profile, simultaneous spatial and temporal focusing technique when operated in the wide-field mode, provides another way to perform the axial scanning of the maximum signal excitation plane in the axial direction.
- Wide-field operation removes the spatial focusing and therefore inside the focal volume illumination field is only temporally focused. This temporal focusing is achieved because different colors are spatially separated, i.e. the effect of geometrical dispersion.
- the system 200 illustrated in FIG. 5 can be used to implement this concept.
- the system 200 includes a grating 202, cylindrical collimating lens 204 and an objective lens 206 as in the system 100 of FIG. 2, but also included a grating pair 208 or a prism pair 210.
- the axial position of the maximum signal excitation plane shifts to the position where the input spectrum chirp is canceled by the geometrical dispersion, i.e. the position where the pulse temporal width is shortest.
- the formula that relates the input chirp and the shift of the maximum signal excitation plane can be obtained for Gaussian profiles.
- FIG. 6 illustrates a modified version of the system 200 of FIG. 5 for implementing this application in which the output pulsed beam from a Ti/Sapphire laser 212 is passed through a lens into a single-core fiber 216, and then through another lens 218 to the grating 202.
- the fiber-delivery of ultrashort pulses is immune to the fiber chromatic dispersion. This is true because the simultaneous spatial and temporal focusing technique intrinsically inherits the geometrical dispersion into the system as a result of wavelength spatial separation. The fiber dispersion will be automatically compensated by shifting the temporal focal plane away from the geometrical optics one. Using the Gaussian profile, the maximum pulse temporal width broadening that can be allowed without pre-dispersion compensation obeys the equation:
- ⁇ R is the Raleigh length inside the focal volume corresponding to width of the rainbow
